We are seeking a dedicated professional for an exciting initiative aimed at understanding the neurodevelopmental needs of patients with Childhood Onset Heart Disease (CoHD). This role is integral to co-designing a new model of care to support families comprehensively. Despite widespread recognition of the importance of addressing these issues across the lifespan, the current provision of neurodevelopmental care and combined child and parent mental health support is fragmented and insufficient to meet CoHD patients' needs.
The successful candidate will play a central role in a funded study focused on characterising the needs of Victorian children. This position involves collaboration with stakeholders from the Royal Children’s Hospital and regional partners. You will work within a multidisciplinary team to identify unmet needs, learning from the experiences of families of children with CoHD who have engaged with the COCOON model of care from inpatient treatment to ongoing follow-up throughout childhood.
This is a part-time role (0.8 FTE) and is maximum term until March 30, 2025 (project end).
For more information regarding responsibilities and requirements please refer to the to the position description.
